Adrian Goodrich, a 52-year-old football coach known as Coach Skeet or Coach, was shot in the head and died at the scene on Scott Street near Yale Avenue in the Binghampton neighborhood of Memphis on the evening of February 22, 2024. He had most recently coached at Bellevue Middle School and was remembered as a mentor to many students.

Witnesses reported hearing people yelling don’t do that, don’t do that just before gunshots. One witness saw a white SUV near Goodrich’s Lexus at the time of the shooting. That led investigators to two men who were arrested, but the case became legally complicated when one man told police the other fired at him first and he returned fire in self-defense, saying Goodrich was behind him when the initial shots were fired.

On May 15, 2024, a judge dismissed charges against both men for insufficient evidence; the Shelby County District Attorney’s Office cited a lack of eyewitness testimony as a significant factor. The death of Adrian Goodrich remains unresolved. If anyone saw the shooting or has information about the white SUV, please come forward.
